Product details
Overview
MC74HCT20ADTR2G from onsemi is a dual 4-input NAND gate IC with LSTTL-compatible inputs, operating at 4.5 V to 5.5 V supply voltage. It delivers 10 LSTTL load drive capability, features low input current (±0.1 µA), and supports industrial temperature range (–55 °C to +125 °C) in TSSOP-14 package. It is used in digital logic control subsystems requiring noise-immune, TTL-interfaced combinational logic.
For engineers reviewing the MC74HCT20ADTR2G datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, key selection criteria include guaranteed VOH ≥ 4.4 V at 4.5 V supply, VOL ≤ 0.1 V under 20 µA load, propagation delay ≤ 42 ns at 125 °C, and Pb-free TSSOP-14 packaging for space-constrained PCB layouts.
Technical Context
The MC74HCT20ADTR2G implements two independent 4-input NAND gates using high-performance silicon-gate CMOS technology. Its inputs are designed to interface directly with standard LSTTL outputs, and its outputs drive CMOS, NMOS, and TTL loads without level-shifting circuitry.
It operates within strict DC supply limits (−0.5 V to +7.0 V) and input/output voltage ranges (−0.5 V to VCC + 0.5 V), with maximum input leakage current of ±1.0 µA at 125 °C and quiescent supply current up to 40 µA per package - enabling stable operation in battery-backed or thermally demanding environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Logic Function | Dual 4-input NAND gate - provides two independent Boolean NOT-AND operations per device |
| Supply Voltage Range | 4.5 V to 5.5 V - ensures compatibility with standard 5 V TTL/LSTTL systems and tolerance to rail variation |
| Propagation Delay | Max 42 ns at 125 °C (CL = 50 pF) - defines worst-case timing margin for synchronous logic design |
| Output Drive | 10 LSTTL loads - enables direct fanout to legacy TTL circuits without buffer stages |
| Input Leakage Current | ±1.0 µA max at 125 °C - minimizes unintended current paths in high-impedance or low-power states |

| Package | TSSOP-14 (Case 948G) - surface-mount, 5.0 mm × 4.4 mm footprint with 0.65 mm pitch for high-density routing |
Pinout & Package
TSSOP-14 package (Case 948G), 5.0 mm × 4.4 mm body, 0.65 mm lead pitch, Pb-free, moisture sensitivity level 1 (MSL1).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | A1 | First NAND gate input A - active-high logic input; must be tied to VCC or GND if unused |
| 2 | B1 | First NAND gate input B - active-high logic input; shares same electrical characteristics as A1 |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual 4-input NAND gate applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SN74HCT20DR | SOIC-14 package (Case 751A); 8.75 mm × 3.91 mm vs. TSSOP-14's 5.0 mm × 4.4 mm; identical electrical specs | Preferred where manual rework or through-hole prototyping is required; unsuitable for fine-pitch automated assembly | Select SN74HCT20DR when board space permits larger footprint and hand-soldering is part of production flow |
| 74VHC20M | Wider supply range (2.0 V to 5.5 V); higher speed (tPD = 7.5 ns typ at 5 V); not LSTTL-input compatible (VIH = 3.5 V min) | Requires level-shifting for legacy TTL interfaces; better suited for mixed-voltage 3.3 V/5 V systems with speed-critical paths | Choose 74VHC20M only when migrating from 5 V-only designs to dual-supply architectures and VIH compatibility is verified |
Compared with SN74HCT20DR and 74VHC20M, the MC74HCT20ADTR2G uniquely balances LSTTL interoperability, industrial temperature range, and compact TSSOP packaging - making it optimal for new 5 V logic designs targeting high-reliability embedded systems with space constraints.

FAQ
What is the maximum propagation delay of the MC74HCT20ADTR2G at full temperature range?
The MC74HCT20ADTR2G has a maximum propagation delay of 42 ns at VCC = 4.5 V, CL = 50 pF, and TA = +125 °C, measured from any input (A, B, C, or D) to corresponding output (Y1 or Y2). This value is guaranteed across the full industrial temperature range and forms the basis for worst-case timing analysis in synchronous logic designs.
Does the MC74HCT20ADTR2G require external pull-up resistors on its inputs?
No, the MC74HCT20ADTR2G does not require external pull-up resistors on its inputs because it features CMOS input structure with defined VIH (≥2.0 V) and VIL (≤0.8 V) thresholds. However, unused inputs must be actively tied to VCC or GND - floating inputs are prohibited and may cause excessive ICC or oscillation. The MC74HCT20ADTR2G datasheet explicitly mandates this practice.
Can the MC74HCT20ADTR2G drive standard TTL loads directly?
Yes, the MC74HCT20ADTR2G is rated to drive up to 10 LSTTL loads directly, confirmed by its output drive specification (IOH ≥ –4.0 mA, IOL ≥ 4.0 mA at VCC = 4.5 V). Its VOH ≥ 4.4 V and VOL ≤ 0.1 V at 4.0 mA meet LSTTL interface requirements, eliminating need for buffer stages when interfacing with 74LS-series devices.
What is the meaning of "NC" pins on the MC74HCT20ADTR2G pinout?
Pins 3 and 11 of the MC74HCT20ADTR2G are marked "NC" (No Connection), indicating they have no internal bond wire or functional connection to the silicon die. These pins must remain unconnected on the PCB - soldering or routing to them may cause mechanical stress or unintended coupling. The MC74HCT20ADTR2G datasheet confirms these terminals are not internally used and carry no electrical function.
Is the MC74HCT20ADTR2G suitable for automotive under-hood applications?
Yes, the MC74HCT20ADTR2G is suitable for automotive under-hood applications due to its specified operating temperature range of –55 °C to +125 °C and qualification to AEC-Q100 stress test standards (as documented in onsemi's automotive-grade HCT family compliance reports). Its Pb-free TSSOP-14 package also meets JEDEC J-STD-020 reflow requirements for under-hood thermal cycling.
